// 01. About Me

Backend Architect with a Full-Stack Mindset

Passionate about high-concurrency systems, database tuning, and crafting APIs that power seamless client experiences.

The Engineering Journey

Based in Biratnagar and Lalitpur, Nepal, I have spent the last 3+ years scaling high-volume education-tech and enterprise infrastructure at Veda App (वेद). My day-to-day involves architecting robust RESTful APIs, optimizing heavy MySQL databases, engineering inventory management systems with Symfony, and connecting scalable backend microservices with modern React frontends.

I recently graduated with my Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) from Nihareeka College, blending academic computer science principles with intensive real-world production engineering.

Core Philosophy

  • Reliability First: Clean, defensive backend code that gracefully handles high throughput, failovers, and multi-tenant isolation.
  • Data Integrity: Strict schema design, relational normalization, indexing strategies, and ACID transaction safety.
  • Seamless Integration: API contracts designed for speed, clarity, and ergonomic frontend/mobile consumption.
  • Continuous Growth: Deepening expertise across Laravel and Symfony ecosystems, React, cloud architecture, and modern DevOps.
